The Toy Fox Terrier is a canine breed originating in the United States in the 1930’s. Bred as a small game hunter, this pup is very athletic and has great hearing. Also known as the “Amertoy”, they are bred of a combination of Smooth Fox Terrier, Italian Greyhound, Manchester Terrier, Chihuahua, and Miniature Pinscher. This little pup is very agile and strong, being able to jump up to four feet high. They have even been able to walk a tightrope! Identifiable traits include large bat-like ears, a naturally short tail, and long thin legs. The Toy Fox Terrier needs daily exercise, but also likes to lounge around watching television and cuddling. Don’t expect them to be too eager to go swimming with you, though. They do not like to be in water or cold weather. Grooming is easy with this breed, only needing occasional combing and nail trimming. The American Kennel Club recognized the Toy Fox Terrier in 2003.
